abstract
We calculate the heavy quarkonium energy levels and decay widths in a quark-gluon plasma, whose temperature T and screening mass m_D satisfy the hierarchy m alpha_s >> T >> m alpha_s^2 >> m_D (m being the heavy-quark mass), at order m alpha_s^5. We first sequentially integrate out the scales m, m alpha_s and T, and, next, we carry out the calculations in the resulting effective theory using techniques of integration by regions. A collinear region is identified, which contributes at this order. We also discuss the implications of our results concerning heavy quarkonium suppression in heavy ion collisions.

Lattice study of correlators of chromoelectric fields for heavy quarkonium dynamics in the quark-gluon plasma
Adjoint chromoelectric correlators relevant for quarkonium dynamics are calculated in quenched lattice QCD and found to equal the fundamental correlator times Casimir factors, confirming leading-order relations nonperturbatively.
